Chapter 41 The Clever Old Man 2
Ten days later, all the females who had drunk the potion for multiple pregnancies went to the witch doctor for examination.
He Yanyan was the first to receive the pregnancy test herb. When she learned she was pregnant, she danced with joy. The other females also received good news one after another. Even the seemingly simple-minded You Meimei showed a kind smile. Because of her pregnancy, she received careful care from her three beast husbands and wouldn't be like before. It's true that sometimes fools have good fortune.
He Yanyan was the first to come to find Lin Weiwei. When she saw Lin Weiwei, she hugged her arm and cried. "I'm so happy, Weiwei, thank you," He Yanyan said between sobs.
Lin Weiwei smiled and patted He Yanyan on the back, saying, "Whose mother is this? She cries so easily."
He Yanyan burst into laughter through her tears, saying, "You're so naughty! The little one is still so young, how would he know I'm crying?"
He Yanyan's beastly husband, standing to the side, also smiled.
At this time, females came over one after another, and they all expressed their gratitude to Lin Weiwei.
Lin Weiwei felt that she had been staying in the Snake Clan for almost twenty days, and it was time to return to the Lion Clan. She also missed her cubs and Zexuan and Zehao.
After the females left, Lin Weiwei said to You Hao, "Call Father and Mother over for dinner. I plan to set off back to the Lion Clan tomorrow."
"Okay, Weiwei, I'll be there in a bit," Youhao replied.
After dinner, Lin Weiwei said to the snake chief, "Father, Mother, we plan to return to the Lion Clan tomorrow. I've put twenty large bags of salt in the cave, enough for the tribe to eat for a while. Salt isn't just for the females; the males need it too. If the male beastmen don't eat salt for a long time, they'll eventually have some problems." Each bag of salt weighs one hundred jin (50 kg), so twenty bags would be two thousand jin (1000 kg).
"Weiwei, are you going back tomorrow? Why not stay a few more days?" the snake leader asked.
"No, I'm over two months pregnant now. If I stay any longer, my belly will get bigger and bigger, and I'm afraid it will be inconvenient for me to move around. I'll go back tomorrow."
"Then your father will send you back. He'll return once you reach the tribe."
Hearing the snake leader say this, Lin Weiwei felt a warmth in her heart. "Father, really, there's no need. You don't know the ranks of You Hao and Ye Ying, do you?" She then turned to You Hao and Ye Ying and said...
"You two, show your rank to your father!" A powerful aura emanated from You Hao and Ye Ying.
The snake leader gaped in astonishment, "Ultra...Ultra-grade!"
He was so excited he stammered. He hadn't expected his son to be such a powerful being, and that day, he'd seen Lin Weiwei's rank was even higher.
"Father, don't worry! We will reach the Lion Clan safely," Lin Weiwei comforted her with a smile.
The snake leader nodded excitedly, walked over, patted You Hao on the shoulder, and said, "You brat, protect Weiwei well from now on. Once your father has made arrangements, I'll go to the Lion Clan to see you all, and my little grandson too." He spoke with a happy expression.
"Don't worry, Father, I will protect Weiwei with my whole life." He then gave Lin Weiwei a flirty look.
Lin Weiwei thought, while others were speaking seriously, this guy was just being lewd.
The next morning, Lin Weiwei and the other two set off.
On the way, Lin Weiwei wondered how the children would react when they saw her.
Meanwhile, at the Lion Clan tribe, the four little ones weren't out causing trouble today. Instead, they sat in the courtyard, lost in thought. Grandpa came to take them to play, but they wouldn't go. They wouldn't eat the snacks offered to them. Zexuan, worried they might catch a cold, patted their heads and, finding them alright, was relieved.
Suddenly, I wondered if the babies missed Weiwei, since they're already eight months old. So I asked, "Do you miss your mommy?"
As soon as Zexuan finished asking the question, the four little ones burst into tears. It would have been better if he hadn't asked; now that he had, trouble was brewing.
"Alright, Father knows you miss Mother. Father has calculated the time, and your Mother will be back in a few days, really."
"Really, you can count it yourselves if you don't believe me. Use your ten fingers, count one finger a day, and your mother will be back by the time you're done," Zexuan taught them math.
After the four children heard this, the second oldest, Zemo, pressed his thumb down and looked at his father with his clear, bright eyes, meaning that this counted as today's. Although they couldn't say it, Zexuan understood what he meant.
This second child matches his name perfectly, Ze Mo. His belly is full of ink; he learns quickly and understands immediately.
"Yes, this counts as today's. Mother will be back after we finish."
Hearing the answer they wanted, the four little ones happily picked up their snacks and started eating, laughing as they ate, like silly boys.
Zexuan laughed along with the children, thinking, "Weiwei, come back soon. I miss you so much, and the children miss you too..."
